I do remember hearing something similar too.  What does your vet say about it?  Prayers for Hannibal, Nina Hideyo Yamamoto wrote: I heard something about since epogen is used under the condition where the body cannot produce any more red cell counts on their own, once start relying on it, it will prevent them from producing red cells on their own, therefore, you have to use it for the rest of their lives ---I think that’s what I learned from CRF support group, but I am not 100% sure –that’s why I am sort of hesitant about it…   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 5:31 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: To Belida: about Hannibal   I may be wrong, but I don't think that's true. I think you can stop it if they recover the ability to make red blood cells on their own.   Michelle
